At the invitation of the Carnegie Endow-
ment ofr International Peace, a partyof some
SO professors of International Law and allied
subjects visited Paris, The Hague and
Geneva this summer with the object of
studying at close range the activities of the
various international bureaus and commis-
sions which have their headquarters in
those cities. Dr. Feiiwick, professor of In-
ternational Law at Bryn Mawr, was one" of
the guests of, the Endowment and speaks of
the trip as one of the most interesting ey-
periences he has ever had.
In Paris the party visited the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs and was given an oppor-
tunity to examine documents of great his-
toric interest, such as the treaty of 1778
between the United States and France.
Other visits were to the International Com-
mission on Aerial Navigation, the Interna-
tional Office of Public Hygiene, the National
Library, the International Institute of In-
tellectual Co-Operation, the Internatioal Bu-
reau of Weights and Measures at Sevres,
the. International Bureau of Bibliography at
Vincctlnes.
At The Hague the chief interest of the
party centered in the Palace of Peace, the
gift of Mr. Carnegie, where both the older
Court of Arbitriation and the newer Perma-
nent Court of International Justice hold their
sessions. Conferences, were had with Mr.
Hammarskjpld, the Registrar of the World
CoTTrt, and with Judge Lodcr. Judge and first
President of the Court. The party also
attended a session of the Academy of Inter-
national Law.
During the first week of the visit to
Geneva, the group attended the sessions of
the Geneva Institute of International Rela-
tions and had the opportunity of meeting a
number of the leading officials of the Secre-
tariat of the League of Nations. The sec-
ond and third weeks were given over to
private conferences by the group with the
technical administrative officials of the
League, while the fourth week was spent in
attendance upon the sessions of the CounciT
and of the Assembly of the League. In addi-
tion to the two or three conferences a day
which the program called for there were
almost dailv luncheon and dinner confer-
ences and meetings so that there was prac-

(From the Public Ledger)
A music score written and forgotten for
almost a century and a half is to be played
by the Philadelphia Orchestra when it
opens its season on October 8 and 9.
The work is one of Mozart's compo-
sitions, lost to the world for many years
and recently brought to light in the Paris
National Conservatory by Louis Bailly.
the celebrated viola player, who pre-
sented it to Dr. Leopold Stokowski.
Some time in the years preceding the
French Revolution, the manuscript occu-
pied a place in the King's Chapel of Louis
XVI. -Then when the tide of revolt
swept the people and the Tuileries was
stormed by a maddened population that
left destruction and death in its wake, the
score was believed to have been removed
to the Paris National Conservatory.
There it lapsed int

' From F.I Ideal Galleyo
The distinguished professor of the uni-
versity of Bryn Mawr College of Pcnsyl-
vania, Miss Georgiana Goddard King', came
to La Conmina for Santiago. She is an en-
thusiastic admirer of Galicia to which she
has devoted many pages of praise in her
works, i Her studies have dealt in the most
part with monuments, especially the Visi-
gothic, Mo/araliie and Romanesque ones,
which she has recently written about in a
curious work, a book about the Way of
Saint James, followed by the Santiago pil-
grims, which she lu\s retraced step by step.
She is also the editor of the interesting work
by Street about the churches of Spain in
which she treats at length of the churches
of Galicia. Since this was out of print, Miss
Georgiana rcpubrisHcd it with interesting
notes. It is a pity that these were not in-
cluded when the tvork was first translated
into Spanish.
The Mayor, Sri Manuel Casas, the tempor-
ary president of jthe Gallegan Academy, Sr.
Carres Aldac, and the academicians Castillo
and Fernandez Moras went to receive and
salute her. Accompanied by Senores Cams,
Moras and Castillo, she returned the visit
of Sr. Casas in his office at the City Hall
and also visited the home of the academy
where her appointment as Corresponding
kiembej of the society was conferred upon
her in consideration for her work in dis-
seminating knowledge of Galicia and in-
creasing its glory.
Miss (ioddard King thanked them for this
consideration and a sign of regard which is
all the greater because there are only four
such Corresponding Members in North
America.
At the invitation of Sr. Casas luncheon
was served at the restaurant AJfonzo. Among
those present were Sr. Carres Aldao. tempor-
ary president of the academy; the distin-
guished journalist. ElOy L. Andre: the
academicians Castillo and Martinez Moras

The Social Service Committee is hold

Everyone who is interested in Social
Service work, even if she docs not expect
�to. do any work, is invited to attend. Dr.
Kingsbury will speak on the pluu for
the year.
The committee is having preliminary
classes for the volunteers to give them a
start on the work. Then informal meet-
ings wiir'be held to discuss difficulties as
they arise. The Social Economy Depart-
ment is going to assist. These classes
should be very interesting and valuable.
The Social Service Committee has never
before offered such an opportunity for
really worth while experience. They are
planning field .trips and.. lc.cturejt
which will be announced later.
President Marion Edwards Park opened
the college year of 1920-27 on Wednesday,
September 29,- speaking in chapel.. She
stressed the change wrought in the college
atmosphere by the mnovation of freshman
week, the development of the graduate "
school and the responsibility of the under-
graduate to the college.
"The formal opening hour of the college
has been already preceded by so many busy
days that I can hardly bring myself to be-
lieve it is actually only this moment taking
place," said President Park. "Always of
course the stated 'Wednesday morning at U
o'clock' has followed a crescendo accele-
rando of preparation, but this year the pres-
ence of the freshmen on the campus for a
week back has brought with it all. of the
lively movement and stir which usually dies
down after the last ringing of the Taylor
bell in June and wakes only with this week
in the autumn. Will the college year go
more softly and pleasantly for an entering
class which already almost to the last man
has answered and questioned the president
and dean, transferred cards from dignitary
to dignitary, yielded up its secrets, volun-
tarily or involuntarily, to Miss Applebee.

through the library and registered its initials.

impressions of our experiment by dean,

once say that all this has been carried on in
peace and tranquillity, not in the thick of
finding class rooms, understanding assign-
ments, recognizing upper classmen, those
mazes of heat and sound in which the
classes from '89 (1 suppose) to '25 (I
know) took their first exploring steps. It
lias seemed to inc that to borrow James
Russell Lowell's figure the college might as
well ask a setting hen to answer the door-
bell as expect its liewildcred freshmen to
keep the many and irregular appointments
of their induction to Bryn Mawr and to start
college, work at the same time. I hope that
a good beginning of the semester may shape
a better ending than other classes have some-
times found.
The class already knows what I can an-
nounce to the college this morning, that it
has 127 members�not of every age and
